This repo pulls published REST specifications for Qlik Cloud from Qlik Developer each night and syncs to a Postman collection at Qlik Cloud APIs.

Individual API specification files for published Qlik Cloud services.

• qlik-cloud.json - Complete OpenAPI specification combining all APIs into a single file.

If you wish to be able to sync to the latest release, fork the sync'd collection from Qlik Cloud APIs.

To import manually:

1. Download the consolidated specification: consolidated/qlik-cloud.json
2. Open Postman and click "Import"
3. Select the downloaded qlik-cloud.json file
4. Import - Postman will create a new collection with all Qlik Cloud APIs

To make your credentials more secure, and to keep them portable, it's recommended to use environments to store them. Both options below are supported for the /api path in the collection, while the /login and /oauth paths require different patterns.

For simple integration and testing where you want to call endpoints with the permissions of your interactive user:

1. Generate an API key at https://qlik.dev/authenticate/api-key/generate-your-first-api-key/
2. In Postman, set the authentication type to "Bearer Token"
3. Create an environment in Postman:

• baseUrl: The tenant URL, in format https://tenantname.region.qlikcloud.com
• apiKey: The API key for your user

4. Update the Authorization configuration for the /api path to Bearer Token, and set the value of Token to {{apiKey}}.

For production applications and automated systems, or where you want fine grain control of scopes and permissions:

1. Create an OAuth2 client at https://qlik.dev/authenticate/oauth/create/create-oauth2-client
2. Configure the client with appropriate scopes
3. Create an environment in Postman:

• baseUrl: The tenant URL, in format https://tenantname.region.qlikcloud.com
• clientId: The client ID for the Qlik Cloud OAuth M2M client
• clientSecret: The client secret for the Qlik Cloud OAuth M2M client

4. Update the Authorization configuration for the /api path to OAuth 2.0, with:

• Add auth data to set to Request Headers (default)
• Header Prefix set to Bearer (default)
• Token Name set to a string that explains to you what the token is for (e.g. Qlik Cloud)
• Grant type set to client_credentials (default)
• Access Token URL set to {{baseUrl}}/oauth/token
• Client ID set to {{clientId}}
• Client Secret set to {{clientSecret}}
• Scope set to match hat you configured in 2, e.g. user_default admin_classic
• Client Authentication set to Send client credentials in body

5. Click Get New Access Token, and follow the prompt
6. Ensure Auto-refresh Token is toggled to on

The consolidated OpenAPI specification can be used with:

• Postman (import as OpenAPI specification, or fork existing)
• OpenAPI generators for client libraries
• API documentation tools like Swagger UI, Redoc
• API testing tools like Insomnia
• Any OpenAPI-compatible tool
